Material Notes:

PLENCO 08218 is a renumber of PlasGlas 20118. PLENCO 08218 is an 18% glass-filled polyester bulk molding compound characterized as an electrical grade, but has many outstanding properties that make it suitable for a broad range of applications. Because of its excellent electrical resistance and mechanical strength, it is well suited to commercial/industrial heavy duty electrical parts, including enclosures for power distribution equipment, fuse holders, circuit breaker cases, electric motor housings and components. It is available in bulk or extruded form, and currently in the colors of natural and light gray. Other colors available upon request. It is UL recognized under file E40654.Information supplied by Plenco.
